Exactly as me and jimmymac said weeks ago. Under Armor is not cool at all for football

I think Notre Dame wanted a quality company who was going to make Notre Dame their top priority.

They were a bigger fad a few years ago, but as long as they don't try to make sort of atrocious changes to the uniforms, it's just a solid business move.

By no means am I an UnderArmour fan. I was a bit of a hater when they were a bigger deal, but if they can gear us up better and provide a better relation to the recruits, you can't really complain.

I honestly like(d) Adidas as a brand.

Suddenly the Atkinson, Dickerson decisions have clarity.

What the hell did you guys want? Everyone was bitching about Adidas before, now we hate Under Armour? I'm going back to my trailer.

I am not cool I guess, but I always thought kids liked Under Armour? Full disclosure: I don't like Under Armour and have never owned an Under Armour thing, but I kind of thought that made me a contrarian, not a trendsetter.

i'm surprised the kids are that upset over the switch, would think they'd be fired up. never realized under armour football apparel was that bogus.

I'm fine being the minority here. I love the move for selfish reasons.

I'm 6'4 and about 215 of pure white chocolate. Adidas clothes don't fit me worth a damn. Nike and UA are made for people with my build. I love it.

Man, what I am reading the new recruits really don't like UA. Hope that changes. We need zero more reasons for kids to think twice. Small things, but small things add up.
